PHYSICAL UNIT INSTALLATION
WARNING
Make sure that there are no pipes or electrical wires within the wall before
drilling any mounting holes
SECURING THE MOUNTING BRACKET
The typical mounting location for the FAAST XT PRO unit is on the wall. The
unit is mounted to the wall using the enclosed mounting bracket. Figure 1
shows the wall mounting bracket. For easier access to the FAAST XT PRO
unit, it is preferred to position the mounting bracket in an easily accessible
location.
1. Place the mounting bracket on the wall in the desired location and use it
as a template to locate the necessary mounting holes.
2. Mark the hole locations and remove the bracket. It is recommended to
secure the bracket using the 3 outer mounting holes.
3. Using a drill and the proper size bit for your mounting hardware, drill
the necessary holes.
4. Use appropriate fasteners to accommodate the mounting surface and
FAAST XT PRO device weight.
5. Secure the bracket to the wall.
MOUNTING THE DETECTOR TO THE BRACKET
Once the mounting bracket is attached, the unit is ready to be mounted on to
the bracket. Perform the following procedure to mount the unit.
1. Before installing the unit onto the bracket, remove the appropriate con
-
duit caps from the top or bottom left side of the unit to match the orien-
tation of the wiring.
2. Line up the unit with the three mounting clips and the mounting studs
on the left side.
3. Push the unit down onto the mounting clips and secure it with the sup
-
plied washer and nut on the mounting studs protruding through the
mounting slots shown in Figure 2.
CONNECTING THE AIR SAMPLING PIPE
ATTENTION
Detailed pipe network information and best practices can be found in the Pipe
Installation Guide, available for download at systemsensor.com/faast
The input and output ports are designed to accept nominal one inch pipe
(25mm). The input and output ports are tapered to provide fast, easy, pushfit
connection of the sampling pipe to the unit. Perform the following procedure
to connect the air sampling pipe to the unit.
1. Square off and de-burr the end of the sampling pipe. Ensure that the pipe
is free from any particles that might interfere with the pipe connection.
2. Remove the input plug from the input port being used (either the top or
bottom of the unit).
3. Insert the air sampling pipe into the port, ensuring a snug fit. DO NOT
glue these pipes.
EXHAUST PIPE
The device should always be exhausted in to the space that it is monitoring.
There are some circumstances where it may be necessary to connect a pipe to
the exhaust port to divert the exhaust away from the location of the unit. Add-
ing as little as 2ft of exhaust pipe also acts as a muffler for the fan – ensuring
quieter operation. The output ports are tapered the same as the input ports, to
provide fast, easy, push-fit connection of an exhaust pipe to the unit. Perform
the following procedure to connect the exhaust pipe to the unit.
1. Square off and de-burr the end of the exhaust pipe. Ensure that the pipe
is free from any particles that might interfere with the pipe connection.
2. Remove the plug from the exhaust port being used (either the top or
bottom of the unit).
3. Insert the air exhaust pipe into the port, ensuring a snug fit. DO NOT
glue these pipes.

The Center of Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) of the U. S. Food and Drug
Administration implemented regulations for laser products on August 2, 1976. These
regulations apply to laser products manufactured after August 1, 1976. Compliance is
mandatory for products marketed in the United States.
LASER SAFETY INFORMATION
The use of all FAAST products (configuration, design, use and maintenance) must be performed in accordance with the technical documentation, General Terms and Conditions and
local regulations and/or directives for design, installation and maintenance of fire alarm systems. Product Manuals, User Guides, White Papers, CAD Drawings, Datasheets, Engineering
specifications are available from www.systemsensor.com/faast. The performance of this system is dependent upon the pipe network. Any extensions or modifications to the designed
installation may cause improper operation. The operational effects of such changes shall be verified. A design tool is available from System Sensor webpage.
Class 1, Div 2 - RJ45 Connector is for maintenance use only and shall not be used while in a Hazardous Location unless power has been removed or the area is known to be non-
hazardous. These units are tested and regulatory approved to allow the pipe networks to be installed in corrosive or hostile environments. The aspiration unit itself should operate in
a controlled environment as per the specifications listed in the manual. The detector unit is not suitable to be installed in hostile environments.
Exposure of the detector to silicone vapor must be avoided as it may permanently inhibit the pipe identification sensor from detecting fire gases. Sources of silicone vapor include
furniture polish, spray lubricants, and flexible uncured gaskets and sealants.
Avoid installing the detector in areas that have elevated levels of organic chemical vapors such as alcohol, as this will affect the baseline of the channel identification sensors. Other
gases known to have an effect on MOS sensors that FAAST XT PRO uses for identifying the smoke in individual inlets, are oxidizing agents such as chlorine, ozone, nitrogen oxides.
While these gases will not permanently damage the sensors and will not have an impact on the overall smoke detection, they may impair the ability to identify the inlet affected by
smoke.
GENERAL WARNINGS
SYSTEM POWERING
The following procedure describes how to initially power up the FAAST XT PRO
system.
1. Unplug the unit’s power connector to the unit before turning on the
power.
2. Turn on the power.
3. Check the voltage at the connector. Make sure it is within the required
voltage range.
4. If wiring is not connected to the external monitor terminal, install a
47kΩ resistor (provided with the unit) into the terminal block and fit it
into the T6 terminal.
5. If the voltage is within the proper range, reconnect the power connector
to the unit.
6. Verify the system fan starts up and air begins to flow out of the exhaust
port. The user interface will provide the device status.
7. Connect a computer, with PipeIQ installed, to the unit using either the
USB connection on the front of the device, or the Ethernet port located in
the left side wiring door. (See ‘Connecting to FAAST XT PRO’ for detailed
connection instructions.)
8. Use the PipeIQ software to set up the unit configuration required for the
particular application.
9. The PC may now be disconnected unless a permanent networked con
-
nection is desired.
10. The device will establish an airflow baseline during the first five minutes
of operation after powering on, following the successful download of a
configuration to the device from PipeIQ, or after initiating Baseline Reset
from Functions menu on the unit’s display. During the initial baseline
period the LCD will display Baseline message.
The calculated baseline is stored in the device’s non-volatile memory and
is used to monitor changes in the system’s airflow that may be caused
my dust build up, broken piping, clogged holes, etc. Therefore, it is im
-
portant to verify that the system is setup and installed per the PipeIQ
design file and meets the requirement of the local codes and authorities.
The Baseline message is also displayed after power on reset, following
the initial baseline period. During the five minutes after power up the
device is monitoring the system to determine the current airflow baseline
of the system. Once the current airflow baseline is established, it is com
-
pared to the initial baseline stored in non-volatile memory to determine
the overall health of the system.
